[omniORB] Option validateUTF8 seems not to work

[Peter Klotz]

Hello

In a simple omniORB 4.1.5 Client/Server setup with option validateUTF8 set to 1 no exception is thrown.

The client (nativeCharCodeSet=UTF-8, validateUTF8=1) sends non UTF-8 byte sequence 0xe4 in an IDL string to the server (nativeCharCodeSet=UTF-8, validateUTF8=1). According to the documentation, I would expect a DATA_CONVERSION exception.

Should this setup trigger the exception?

Regards, Peter.

There is a silly char signedness bug in the validation code. The
attached patch fixes it.
